Design The house responds to the Greek Revival traditions of the neighborhood on the exterior with a wholly unexpected interior. The house is organized around two courts: first, an arrival court on the public side, and second, a garden court on the quiet private side.
Orienting the house perpendicular to the slope allows for the separation of the property into a public, arrival side on the North and a private, garden side to the South, both with views of the fields.
This compound of new buildings adopts a vernacular rural style, reinforcing the culture of the place by using simple barn forms. The composition is unified by painting all the buildings the traditional ferrous oxide red.
